Translated from the Spanish by J.T. Lichtenstein
The first novel to appear in English by one of the most talked-about and critically acclaimed writers of new Mexican fiction.
From a psychoanalyst's couch, the narrator looks back on her bizarre childhood. Born with an abnormality in her eye and a family intent on fixing it, she occupies a world without the time and space for innocence. The narrator intimately recalls her younger self-a fierce and discerning girl open to life's pleasures and keen to its ruthless cycle of tragedy.
With raw language and a brilliant sense of humor, both delicate and unafraid, Guadalupe Nettel strings together hard-won, unwieldy memories-taking us from Mexico City to Aix-en-Provence, France, then back home again-to create a portrait of the artist as a young girl. In The Body Where I Was Born, Nettel's artful storytelling transforms experience into inspiration and a new startling perception of reality.
